Abstract
A water trampoline including a supporting shell and a plurality of concentrically disposed inflatable rings disposed within the supporting shell to form a stable, low profile buoyant platform. A trampoline mat is attached to an inner edge of the supporting shell to resiliently support it over the central opening of the platform. A zippered access opening is provided on the inner edge of the shell below the trampoline mat to provide access to the inflatable rings.

a sea anchor suspended beneath the central opening end including a plurality of downwardly converging straps supporting an inverted truncated cone at a spaced location relative to the upper and lower ends of the converging straps.
2. The water trampoline of claim 1 wherein the supporting shell includes a closeable access opening disposed to receive the inflatable rings.
3. The water trampoline of claim 2 wherein the closeable access opening is a zippered opening disposed adjacent the central opening in the supporting shell.
